Answer:

No possible solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

Shirt = x

Pant = y

x + y = 9 - - - - - - - - - (1)

38x + 38y = 222 - - - (2)

From (1):

y = 9 - x

Put y = 9 - x in (2)

38x + 38(9 - x) = 222

38x + 342 - 38x = 222

Based on the Given parameters, we can conclude that the equation does not have a possible solution.
